Q & A

One of our contributors has a question, and an answer.

To all who have fought so hard for some sanity to gas drilling...I have a question.

Exactly when do you become an "activist" instead of the city labeled "naysayer," or even worse, "CAVE People" (Citizens Against Virtually Everything)?

ANSWER: When you and truth can no longer be silenced by elected leadership.

Keep making noise! Hold your leaders accountable.

Unite tomorrow! Invite your friends and your family. It's their air and water too!

Good question and good answer, Louis. Here's my take.

The key part of the word is "act" or "active." Naysayers and Cave People often sit on their butts and point fingers and are often defensive. Activists do their research, listen to lots of opinions, address the media, attend lots of boring meetings, invest their own money, instigate change rather than just moan about it - they are busy, ACTIVE people with sustained passion for their cause. They They are usually overworked and underpaid.

Also, the other side likes to use words like naysayer, CAVE people and worse to throw us off balance, to intimidate and confuse the public to satisfy their own agendas.
